Service bulletin NTB20-060

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

2018-2019 KICKS: ENHANCED DIAGNOSTIC LOGIC FOR CVT IF YOU CONFIRM The customer reports a transmission judder (shake, shudder, single or multiple bumps or vibration), hesitation on acceleration, lack of power, or RPM flare. NOTE: • A new diagnostic logic has been established to enhance the diagnostic process by storing a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) on Applied Vehicles. • New DTCs: P17F0, P17F1, P17F2, P17F4 will not turn the MIL ON. • This new diagnostic logic will monitor conditions in the CVT while the customer is operating their vehicle in their usual daily drive patterns. • If any of the above DTC(s) are stored, refer to NTB19-040 for repair information. ACTION 1. Confirm the current TCM part number is in Table 1. 2. Reprogram the TCM, if applicable.
